MindNode

MindNode is a mind-mapping app for Mac, iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and Apple Vision Pro.

From Idea to Implementation

Mind maps are essentially visual representations of ideas. A mind map starts with a central idea or thought and expands as you elaborate on this theme. You can conveniently reshape your mind map as you establish structure. As the desired outcomes emerge, these mind maps can help articulate projects and actions in OmniFocus and provide project support as you work through the tasks that shape these outcomes. Your mind map can also be viewed as an outline within MindNode or imported into an outlining app such as OmniOutliner once you’re ready to delve into the implementation details (e.g., the course timeline you’re developing).

Designing Your Productivity System

It can also be beneficial to create a mind map of your Areas of Focus (in Getting Things Done speak) as described in this article. Review and update this mind map regularly to help ensure that each area of your life gets the appropriate attention. This mind map can also be handy when structuring OmniFocus, whether you’re setting up OmniFocus from scratch or revamping your system. Additionally, it can be helpful to mind map your tags in preparation for configuring or restructuring OmniFocus, as outlined in this article.
